Chapter 255

"Searching, hacking into government database and….one result found matching description. The apartment is registered to one Felicia Hardy," Sexy replied.

I felt my heart catch, it leapt into my throat. "Felicia?" I asked in disbelief. That was her? This world's version of Kitten was right there, and I couldn't see it? She freaking kissed me and I didn't know?!

I hated myself, but then I slowly began to think it over. Felicia Hardy in this world was probably well over 40, and I don't care how much she trained she can't remain that flexible without some metahuman powers. Meaning that can't possibly be her.

No, something else was going on. "Sexy, access Felicia's records, is she living with any other woman?"

"Sexy, Felicia Hardy is registered to shared the apartment with her partner Diana Sun along with her daughter Felicity Hardy," Sexy explained.

"Partner?! Daughter?!" I asked in shocked, "wait….holy shit! I just kissed Felicity! I kissed my girlfriend's daughter! Fuck! Wait….does that mean I also kissed Flash's daughter?!"

"Yes, Felicia Hardy was married to one Eugene Thompson, she had-"

I cut her off, "I know that Sexy! Argh, tell me something I don't know," I grumbled, honesty Flash Thompson? Fucking crazy man.

"She got a divorce after the birth of her daughter Felicity and her son Gene Thompson."

I grumbled holding my head in my hands, "this reality blows dicks." I looked at the rest of the apartment. Using the zoom function in my helmet I saw an older blonde woman sitting for dinner with a black woman, who I assume was Diana, and another blonde.

The younger blonde looked exactly like my Felicia, like a carbon copy, which was to be expected given her mother's identity. Felicity Hardy...damn, this is so weird. I tried to block all memories of her kissing me, shit like that deserved to be burnt and buried.

But the older woman, Felicia...she looked amazing. The way she laughed, the way she smiled, she had lines along her eyes but….oh my God, I might fall in love with this one too.

I pulled away from her, I forced myself too. I wanted to burst into her apartment, grab her and kiss her with all my heart. I wanted to run away with her, to cry and tell her I forgive her. But….but I knew she wasn't my Kitten, she would never be my Felicia Hardy. So it was best if I did nothing.

And now I found myself once more out in the night, swinging away in the darkness of a city I barely recognized. All of this...it was just too much! Is it too much to want to live a normal teenage life?! Why do I have to deal with this interdimensional shit?!

I grumbled and took off, making my way back to Queens. It was a long way off, and I took the time trying to suppress all memories of that kiss. I also had Sexy look up Felciity's file and surprise surprise, apparently she also attended Midtown high.

I reached home and walked in, only to find Peter, May and MJ all waiting for him, looking worried.

"Peter!" May cried out, "about time!"

I sighed, closing the door behind me, "sorry I'm late. The cops took much longer to show up."

"Are you okay?" MJ asked.

I shrugged, "please, I faced Magneto and lived, a common crook has nothing on me. Besides, it was the Scarlet Spider chick that ended up saving the day, May and I didn't even have to lift a finger."

May huffed at me mentioning Scarlet, did she know something?

Peter sighed, "well I'm just glad you both are safe, come, let's eat, I for one am starving."

I grumbled, but nodded.

That night just as I was getting ready to go to bed there was a knock on the door and Peter walked in.

"What's up?" I asked him.

"I heard you leapt into action the moment the mugger appeared," Peter said leaning on the door frame.

"Yeah, I did...and?" I asked.

"You said you wouldn't be a hero," he raised a curious eyebrow.

"I didn't put on a damn costume did I? I just did what I had to do to protect my daughter, that's all," I hissed.

"Deny it all you want Peter, but I know you."

"No, believe me, you really don't," I snorted.

He smiled, "no, I do," he sat down on the bed and patted the spot next to him. I sat down and he continued, "I...I know our lives different, I was driven by the death of my uncle, the guilt and...the pain...it drove me. But...it's not the only reason I did what I did."

I sat down next to him, listening to my hero, "so...what was it?"

Peter smiled, "I did it because I could. Because every time I put on that suit, I knew I was doing good. Listen, I know you and I have different ideals and dreams. But...if you can do something to make the world a better place, shouldn't you at least try?"

I was silent, the words from the real Peter Parker ringing through my head loudly. He smiled before reaching down and taking out the chest where his old costume and tools were stored. He popped the trunk lid and displayed the contents.

"If you ever change your mind," he said getting up and walking to the door, "don't hesitate to use it."
